Julia Hartley-Brewer challenges Rishi Sunak: 'Define what a woman is?'

Boris Johnson has spoken on the trans debate at PMQs and said: "When it comes to distinguishing between a man and a woman, the basic facts of biology remain overwhelmingly important."

Julia asks the Chancellor if he can define what a woman is?

Rishi Sunak: "The PM answered this perfectly, I agree with him."

Forget about Boris, define a woman. Why are politicians so afraid to answer a very simple question.

This is the sort of stuff that primary school children would laugh at they are smarter than a lot of grown adults from the looks of things.

[linjubar]

What a coward that man is. He can’t speak for himself, but has to hide behind another’s words, although he can’t recall those words. This man is not an adult human male, he’s a child, and should not hold a position of such responsibility.

[amxdai]

This is actually embarrassing. These are grown adults that are also supposed to be running a country.

[ae-ribae]

I felt embarrassed for him. But only for a few seconds. Then anger and revulsion set in!

[seandelap]

A woman is a human adult female not that hard to say is it i really can't for the live of me understand how that is so problematic to say.

[kellytilley]

This is beyond ridiculous. The world truly is lost 😞

[fabiennemitchell]

My goodness, Rishi Sunak was touted as being a contender for the conservative crown!

[deanmckenzie]

There all so scared to just say the truth its a joke
These people in Parliament can't even answer a straightforward simple question
What is a women its not a gotcha question jesus christ

What's he on a few hundred k a year for this

[deanrobertnoble]

How have we arrived at a stage where our politicians feel cornered when having to define things that yesterday, were patently obvious?

[blaxtru]

Vote Rishi, your politician's politician, i.e. a yes man to whatever his PM may have said. Wot a mind.

[saraandstuartshannon]

Let God have mercy on us with this man who can’t stand for what’s the truth and what’s right and answer this simple question.

[pampalazz]

Keep turning the screws on this ridiculousness, it’s pathetic. How have we got to this ?

[nasfrom-da-ldn]

Western society crumbling before our eyes. What is a women ? Seriously?

[PhillRobinson]

Julia Hartley-Brewer is a prime example x

[btet]

I would agree with everything what the pm said .Julia what were the words he said .I can't remember what he said 😂 and he's tipped as a future pm

[cartoonmo]

Can Rishi Sunak define what a man is, and on what grounds and basis is his conclusive definition based on?
🤔😂
Can Rishi confirm if he's married to a man or a woman, if a woman, on what grounds and basis is his conclusive definition based on?
🤔😂

Absolute madness…. I keep thinking this is some sort of weird dream and I’ll wake and think what a mixed up dream it was. How the f did we get here. I’m a woman part of 50% of the population and now there are people out there that can’t define what I am …. Where did all the confusion come from. Everyone on the planet was born into this world from one and now they don’t know what one is. It’s ridiculously stupid. Why is there not the same confusion about defining men !

[richardglover]

What is wrong with the man????
Men these days actually get to watch their children coming out of the womb of the women they love. Rishi Sunak's wife needs to have a go at him, all he needed to say was, adult female. It is not some sort of lie just a simple fact.
I would have put another question to him. Should trans women respect the rights of women ie adult females, in the same way as men are expected to do so?

How incredibly stupid - RS - "I agree with the way the Prime Minister answered so brilliantly " [Julia] "What did he say, what words did he use?" RS - "He defined it brilliantly" [Julia] "What did he say?" RS " I can't remember - but he defined it brilliantly" Will somebody please wake me up - you mean, this is the guy in charge of our nation's finances? I thought the Chancellor was a married man with 2 kids who studied PPE [not Personal Protective Equipment] at Oxford - I obviously got the wrong guy.
